Default Honda Dirt Bikes vs Kawasaki Dirt Bikes

After riding a Honda CR125 and a Kawasaki 200, I think i'll stick with Honda... I've ridden 2 other Honda Dirt Bikes and one other Kawasaki. Honda's dirt bikes feel really quick when compared to others of the same cc, and I had no problem getting the front tire off the ground, or spraying mud 15 feet behind me. Even though the Kawasaki has more displacement, it felt slower. Both are two strokes also.

P.S. the 125 is a small bike for me too, and it was still eating up that 200 kaw on the trails


Which do you think are the best?

Hmm I not an expert or anything but I do know that the brakes,clutch and engine on the Honda is so much better compared to the Kawasaki however due to the frame setup isnt the suspension more rigid and stiff? I havent followed moto-x bikes in a few years sorry Isnt the 200 a KDX rather than a KX?

The kawasaki 200 is a KDX(enduro bike), compared to the honda 125(CR?) moto-x bike. Its like comparing apples to oranges.

I've rode a Yamaha YZ 250 moto-x bike, let me tell you that was a wild ride, so much power. So much fun too.
